Core Exceptions¶
Exceptions used with SQLAlchemy.
The base exception class is SQLAlchemyError
. Exceptions which are
raised as a result of DBAPI exceptions are all subclasses of
DBAPIError
.
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.AmbiguousForeignKeysError¶
Raised when more than one foreign key matching can be located between two selectables during a join.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.AmbiguousForeignKeysError
(sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError¶
Raised when an invalid or conflicting function argument is supplied.
This error generally corresponds to construction time state errors.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError
(sqlalchemy.exc.SQLAlchemyError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.AwaitRequired¶
Error raised by the async greenlet spawn if no async operation was awaited when it required one.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.AwaitRequired
(sqlalchemy.exc.InvalidRequestError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.Base20DeprecationWarning¶
Issued for usage of APIs specifically deprecated or legacy in SQLAlchemy 2.0.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.Base20DeprecationWarning
(sqlalchemy.exc.SADeprecationWarning
)-
attribute
sqlalchemy.exc.Base20DeprecationWarning.
deprecated_since: str | None = '1.4'¶ Indicates the version that started raising this deprecation warning
-
attribute
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.CircularDependencyError¶
Raised by topological sorts when a circular dependency is detected.
There are two scenarios where this error occurs:
In a Session flush operation, if two objects are mutually dependent on each other, they can not be inserted or deleted via INSERT or DELETE statements alone; an UPDATE will be needed to post-associate or pre-deassociate one of the foreign key constrained values. The
post_update
flag described at Rows that point to themselves / Mutually Dependent Rows can resolve this cycle.In a
MetaData.sorted_tables
operation, twoForeignKey
orForeignKeyConstraint
objects mutually refer to each other. Apply theuse_alter=True
flag to one or both, see Creating/Dropping Foreign Key Constraints via ALTER.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.CircularDependencyError
(sqlalchemy.exc.SQLAlchemyError
)-
method
sqlalchemy.exc.CircularDependencyError.
__init__(message: str, cycles: Any, edges: Any, msg: str | None = None, code: str | None = None)¶
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.CompileError¶
Raised when an error occurs during SQL compilation
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.CompileError
(sqlalchemy.exc.SQLAlchemyError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.ConstraintColumnNotFoundError¶
raised when a constraint refers to a string column name that is not present in the table being constrained.
New in version 2.0.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.ConstraintColumnNotFoundError
(sqlalchemy.exc.ArgumentError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.DBAPIError¶
Raised when the execution of a database operation fails.
Wraps exceptions raised by the DB-API underlying the database operation. Driver-specific implementations of the standard DB-API exception types are wrapped by matching sub-types of SQLAlchemy’s
DBAPIError
when possible. DB-API’sError
type maps toDBAPIError
in SQLAlchemy, otherwise the names are identical. Note that there is no guarantee that different DB-API implementations will raise the same exception type for any given error condition.DBAPIError
featuresStatementError.statement
andStatementError.params
attributes which supply context regarding the specifics of the statement which had an issue, for the typical case when the error was raised within the context of emitting a SQL statement.The wrapped exception object is available in the
StatementError.orig
attribute. Its type and properties are DB-API implementation specific.Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.DBAPIError
(sqlalchemy.exc.StatementError
)-
method
sqlalchemy.exc.DBAPIError.
__init__(statement: str | None, params: _AnyExecuteParams | None, orig: BaseException, hide_parameters: bool = False, connection_invalidated: bool = False, code: str | None = None, ismulti: bool | None = None)¶
-
method
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.DataError¶
Wraps a DB-API DataError.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.DataError
(sqlalchemy.exc.DatabaseError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.DatabaseError¶
Wraps a DB-API DatabaseError.
Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.DatabaseError
(sqlalchemy.exc.DBAPIError
)
- exception sqlalchemy.exc.DisconnectionError¶
A disconnect is detected on a raw DB-API connection.
This error is raised and consumed internally by a connection pool. It can be raised by the
PoolEvents.checkout()
event so that the host pool forces a retry; the exception will be caught three times in a row before the pool gives up and raisesInvalidRequestError
regarding the connection attempt.Class signature
class
sqlalchemy.exc.DisconnectionError
(sqlalchemy.exc.SQLAlchemyError
)
Object Name | Description |
---|---|
A mixin class which, when applied to a user-defined Exception class,
will not be wrapped inside of |

- class sqlalchemy.exc.DontWrapMixin¶
A mixin class which, when applied to a user-defined Exception class, will not be wrapped inside of
